Firefighters in Kedleston Road

If Kedleston Road is your way into Derby this morning, we’ve just been informed by Derbyshire Fire and Rescue that they have a crew dealing with what was initially called in as a “lorry fire”, near to the Jonty Farmer pub.

A spokesman for Derbyshire Fire and Rescue said: “We were called at 6.16am to reports of a lorry fire in Kedleston Road. This turned out to be overheated brakes, which firefighters are now cooling with one hosereel jet.”
